OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
A screening of 'Estate, a Reverie' with Andrea Luka Zimmerman
Join the Rent Cultures Network for a screening of Estate, a Reverie (Andrea Luka Zimmerman, 2015), a lyrical documentary portrait of the Haggerston Estate in East London during its final years before demolition. Filmed over seven years, the work reflects on the lives of residents and the social worlds sustained within public housing, exploring care, community, and the politics of visibility.
We are delighted that Andrea Luka Zimmerman will join us for an informal discussion following the screening.
This screening forms part of the Rent Cultures Network Film Series tracing how cinema captures the struggles, solidarities, and imaginations that emerge around housing.
